I take immense pleasure in announcing that I have succesfully completed the 'Show Me Your HITS' event with all your support and participation.A big Bunch of thanks to all my fellow bloggers & non bloggers who actively took part in the event,'Show me Your HITS -Iron Rich Foods'.I would like to thank Sangeetha (sangee)@ Spicy Treats,for giving me this wonderful opportunity and also sharing the maximum recipes(7) from her wonderful space.I received a total of 121+2=123 entries out of which I had 2 non blogger entries from Ranjitha too.(posted below)

             
Coming back to the roundup,Though all recipes are rich sources of iron but the  interesting HITS are-
* Rainbow Paratha -One of the unique & colorful parathas with all natural colors of beets,spinach & carrots..What else do we need more nutritious & lovely way to sneak kidoos with veggies..:-)

Rainbow Paratha

Khajur Satori (Dates Paratha)- Another interesting paratha in a row,but I couldn't resist the healthy filling with dates.I know whats going on reading this..stuffed with dates,feel like grabbing one,Ryt?



Ragi Murungai Keerai Adai -Ragi being one of the richest source of calcium and iron;and murungai keerai(drumstick leaves)another healthy source of iron,both together Rekha has made this beautiful adai:-)



Quinoa Idli- Quinoa is another healthy source and imagine a guilt free steamed food with quinoa ,Quinoa Idlis..Loved the texture and perfectly matched with red bell pepper kulambu:-)



Mixed Nuts & seeds Chikki- Peanuts,sesame,cashew,almonds,flax seeds,sunflower seeds,pistachio makes this awesome brittle with jaggery.A perfect healthy source of Iron and a loved brittle/chikki by all:)

N2.NAME OF THE RECIPE:  Lemon Macaroni & Pepper Macaroni
Lemon Macaroni

This is a very easy and quick to make recipe out of Iron Rich Pastas. We usually have seen Pastas made with all spices, ginger/garlic paste but this is a very light and yummy dinner delight to make.SERVES-2                               COOKING TIME -20MINS,TO  COOK MACARONI:
·         In a pan take 280gms of macaroni and add water in 1:1.50 ratio
·         Also add a tea spoon of salt and 2 tea spoon of oil. Adding oil avoids macaroni being sticky
·         Now let it boil for around 10-12 mins or until tender with stirring in between
·         Once done strain the water completely with a strainer and show it to the cold tap water so that we get it all shinny and not sticking to each other.
Note:
The filtered out macaroni stock when added with jaggery and salt or pepper and salt, as per our taste makes a very tasty and healthy drink.
